      What Is It?      ▲ ▼

      The swiftpos POS API is a rebrand of the formerly known Touch Web Adaptor. It is a local Web Server and Rest API running on a swiftpos Touch Terminal.

      • Direct to POS establishes a connection directly to the Orders Master Terminal (via the POS API) to post Orders/Sales.
      • It runs locally on the swiftpos Touch Master terminal and is automatically configured along with the Gateway Service, when a Location is activated.
      • It accepts Orders/Sales from the swiftpos Orders API and provides feedback as to whether Orders/Sales have reached swiftpos Touch, as well as reduced messaging hops when posting Orders/Sales.
      • It also provides access to information relating to Tables, Available Servings, etc, that is held in Table Tracking.
